Trego's Mountain Ear

The Montana Free Press has a nice article on the topic: What we know about the arrest of superintendent candidate Sharyl Allen.

Sharyl Allen is one of the candidates on the republican primary ballot. She’s running against Susan Hedalen, and whichever of the two wins the primary next Tuesday (June 4th) will face Democrat Shannon O’Brien in November.

And this isn’t speeding tickets. Because Allen’s a current employee of the Montana Office of Public Instruction, she’s managed to run afoul of the law professionally. She’s been charged with obstructing a peace officer, and her campaign is framing it as a parents/students rights issue.
